Background: Arthroscopically assisted lower trapezius tendon (aLTT) transfer is one of the treatment options for posterior-superior irreparable rotator cuff tears (PSIRCTs). Although short-term clinical outcomes have shown promising results, there are currently no reported clinical outcomes over a longer follow-up period. This study evaluated the mid-term outcomes of aLTT transfer in patients with a diagnosis of PSIRCT.

Introduction: Limitation of active Internal Rotation (IR) following Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty (RSA) in patients with massive Rotator Cuff Tears (mRCTs) with subscapularis insufficiency remains a challenge. Recently, RSA with Latissimus dorsi and Teres major (LDTM) transfer in patients with limited active IR has been demonstrated as a reliable treatment option. The purpose of this study was to biomechanically compare the IR torque following LDTM transfer with RSA in mRCT with subscapularis insufficiency to RSA without tendon transfer.

Introduction: Latissimus dorsi and teres major (LDTM) tendon transfer has demonstrated better clinical outcomes compared to Latissimus dorsi (LD) transfer for irreparable anterosuperior cuff (subscapularis/supraspinatus) tears; however, the biomechanical effects of these procedures are unknown. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare kinematics and internal rotation of LDTM transfer to LD transfer for anterosuperior cuff tear.
Methods: Eight cadaveric shoulders were tested in four conditions; (1) intact, (2) anterosuperior rotator cuff tear, (3) LDTM transfer, and (4) LD transfer.

Background: Irreparable anterosuperior rotator cuff tears (IASRCTs) can result in a gradual loss of active elevation and internal rotation, superior and anterior translation of the humeral head, and cuff tear arthropathy. Joint-preserving treatment options for IASRCTs in young and high-demand elderly patients remain a subject of ongoing debate. The aim of the study was to evaluate the biomechanical efficacy of the combined latissimus dorsi and teres major tendon (LDTM) transfer and compare it to an isolated latissimus dorsi (LD) transfer in a cadaveric IASRCT model.

Introduction: Middle trapezius tendon (MTT) transfer has been proposed as a feasible option for managing isolated irreparable supraspinatus tears (IISTTs). However, no clinical study has been attempted. This study aimed to evaluate clinical and radiologic outcomes of arthroscopic-assisted MTT transfer in patients with IISTTs.

Background: Irreparable anterosuperior rotator cuff tears (IASRCTs) can result in loss of active elevation, loss of internal rotation, and pseudoparalysis. Joint-preserving treatment options for IASRCTs in young and high-demand elderly patients are limited. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiologic outcomes of combined anterior latissimus dorsi and teres major (aLDTM) tendon transfer in patients with IASRCTs without reconstruction of the superior rotator cuff and capsular portion.

Background: Latissimus dorsi transfer (LDT) and lower trapezius transfer (LTT) are effective treatment options for posterosuperior irreparable rotator cuff tears (IRCTs) in relatively young patients and elderly high-demand patients without arthritic changes. However, the optimal treatment option for patients with posterosuperior IRCT remains a subject of ongoing debate. This study aimed to compare clinical and radiologic short-term outcomes between arthroscopic-assisted LDT (aLDT) and arthroscopic-assisted LTT (aLTT) in patients with posterosuperior IRCT.

Background: Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) for irreparable massive rotator cuff tear (mRCT) and cuff tear arthropathy (CTA) demonstrates satisfactory clinical outcomes. However, many studies have reported no significant improvements in internal and external rotation. To our knowledge, there have been no studies on new attempts to restore active internal rotation following RSA.

Purpose: To evaluate the impact of graft thickness on clinical outcomes and graft retear after superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) using a hybrid graft combining both fascia lata autograft and dermal allograft in patients with massive rotator cuff tear (MRCT).
Methods: Between January 2017 and February 2019, this study enrolled 58 patients with MRCT who underwent SCR using a hybrid graft combining both fascia lata autograft and dermal allograft. We evaluated clinical outcomes and compared differences between the graft intact and the graft retear group.
Introduction: Acromial pathologies (AP), such as acromial stress reaction (ASR), acromial stress occult fracture (ASOF), and acromial stress fracture (ASF), are known as complications that deteriorate the clinical score and patient satisfaction after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). Several factors that increase stress on the acromion have been reported as risk factors for AP, but this is also unclear. Thecoracoacromial ligament (CAL) is a structure that distributes the stress loading on such an acromion, although its importance has been mentioned, there is a lack of research.

Background: There are several tendon transfers for reconstruction of irreparable subscapularis tears. The latissimus dorsi (LD) could be used because its direction and function are similar to those of the subscapularis. We performed LD transfers for irreparable subscapularis tears and evaluated clinical outcomes.

Background: Hydrodistention is known to be an effective method of treatment for frozen shoulder. However, hydrodistention is accompanied by severe pain during the procedure. An interscalene block may relieve the severe pain associated with the procedure of hydrodistention.
